As you must have known from various sources UPSC Repeats Previous Questions from the static Portion [ Sometimes Copy Paste, some times questions are rephrased , sometimes wrong answers are used to frame questions ] . The number of such repeated question has been 30 + every year .
There are two reasons for the repetition
1. Almost the complete syllabus has been touched in these Questions , and almost all the questions related to important topics like Indian Independence movement have been asked . From where they will bring the new Questions ?
2. While making the question they are asked to prepare questions which can be solved by general graduates irrespective of their graduation stream . So they are bound and can not ask deep rooted tough questions [ which only a graduate in that stream can answer] . And Hence they repeat Questions which contain key words like R
owlatt act , Pitts India Act , ozone depletion , Greenhouse gases , etc
Here we have a pdf containing 4000 plus Previous year Questions , Current affair removed .
